Omission of an education section in the resume could be fatal especially if it shows an individual's ability to do a job. The size of the font is too small. In my practice as a resume writer and job coach, I would never use a font that small 11 points is my lower limit. I hope this is just a first draft.

A resume should avoid block text for most jobs. I understand that some positions require more of a CV style resume, but for the most part, if you're objective doesn't set you apart from everyone else's objective, then you're better off with it out.
